"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:13-16

We have a sweet friend whose son jumped in honor of Grace yesterday. Little did we know they had such a sweet surprise for us. John David was not only jumping in honor of Grace, but he was also wearing a shirt made for her. In talking with the athletic coach, he told me that the school had raised $15,000 for the American Heart Association so far. Is that not absolutely awesome! I was so excited to be invited and get to be a part of this event. Grace had so much fun and got to "jump" some as well.

About Me

We have been married since December 22nd, 2001. We were blessed with our beautiful daughter, Grace, on June 30th, 2006. She was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome,Coarctation of the Aorta, Transposition of the Great Arteries and Dextrocardia, the day after she was born. Grace had her first open heart surgery (Norwood) at 7 days old. Her second open heart surgery (Glenn) was performed at 4 months old. She recently had the third and hopefully final open heart surgery (Fontan)in December of 08. I chose the title Heart to Heart for two reasons. One, is sharing Grace's heart stories with other "heart" families and secondly, having a "heart to heart" in our family, is a time to sit down and share what is going on and happening in your life. This blog is the perfect place to do both and keep in touch with so many we don't get to see as often as we wished. Please feel free to leave us comments, we would love to hear from you.
